Being an offensive racist old white man, I was buoyed by a couple broadcasts. What could put Alex Jones, Paul Joseph Watson, John McLaughlin, Bill Maher, Jerry Seinfeld, Clarence Page, Susan Ferrechio, Eleanor Clift, Chris Rock & Larry the Cable Guy on the same page in regards to youth culture in America today?
MTV Telling caucasians they are racist by their mere birth and college campuses that restrict 'free speech' to zones on the campus? What will this do to our youth? Will they be raised in guilt laden echo chambers?
Paul Joseph Watson with an InfoWars rant about MTV
And the McLaughlin Group (starts at about 9:30 (Issue 2))
What will this stillness in American society lead us to? Some sort of secular ISIS kind of state?
Parks, Executive Session, Pocket Veto & more
This was a long & contentious meeting discussing 4 items. Tempers flared, accusations were flung. Problem is, the news media will only cover maybe 1% of what went down and thefre were a LOT of details to hear. The mayor's government is clearly starting to unravel with his only die hard support being two brain dead Republicans.
Besides being really creepy, a future with augmented reality looks really obnoxious & annoying.
And this guy can't chop to save his soul. He'd starve to death if he had to cook his own food.
This 8/13 episode of Robot Overlordz gets into how Hollywood fucks up comic book characters when they discuss the documentary, The Death of Superman Lives, the Tim Burton / Nicholas Cage production. A big thing is respect and, no Hollywood does not respect the comic book industry. Maybe because it is so New York centric?
But, hey, nobody else respects comics - comics are for kids - movies are for adults. This article in the Daily Mail discusses the remains of a woman buried with weaponry who archaeologists dubbed Red Sonja. The Mail cites actress Bridget Nielsen who played her in a horrible movie but gave no credit to author Robert E Howard nor comic book creators Roy Thomas & Barry Windsor-Smith.
oh well, people seem to like these crappy comic book movies, so...
Yes, friends, The Fishwarp is staying true to form and boycotting The Hamilton County Fair.
Actually a quick search indicates a local media blackout on the 160 year old event.
classy
This year, the Fishwarp's entertainment Facebook page is even boycotting the fair.
In all fairness today is going to be a rain out so maybe the 'Warp can pile on some doom & gloom...
The Hamilton County Fair runs through August 9th in historic Carthage & will have performances by Galaxy Girl, The Naked Karate Girls, The Millennium Robots, various crafting seminars & other cool poo.
Rolling Stone reports Martin Scorsese is 'attached' to directing a movie about The Ramones.
So who should play the boys? Off the top of my noggin:
Brad Pitt as Johnny
Jon Hamm as Joey
Will Smith as Dee Dee
What are your ideas? (don't overload the server, now)
After ominous statements by John Cranley, Harry Black and Jeffery Blackwell - after fear mongering, fang bearing & chest beating from the Cincinnati Enquirer - After fear mongering & crying fire in the theatering from the broadcast media - After shutting down The University of Cincinnati & area businesses
Cincinnati is not in flames
It must be crushing for these guys.
It also looks like I might not open an R&T store in Mt Auburn.
OK, here's your chance to get in on the ground floor of a great new retail franchise concept. Given the current public state of hysteria in multiple media today, I am looking for investors to start up a chain of torch & pitchforks stores.
Other items might be stakes, ropes, chains, broken glass, whips...
I think this is a winner, folks!
OK, Hollywood TV scum, here's my million dollar idea that I give to you free.
You love your rehashing old characters, well, here - remake Have Gun Will Travel but set it in a zombie apocalypse. It can't lose.
Paladin could deal with tyrant warmies abusing both fellow warmies AND the zed all the time spouting moralistic crap & touting classic philosophy.
Some thoughts on death that seem more like rationalization than any kind of philosophy. It kinda flies in the face of the transhumanist movement.
Anyway, it sounds nice & has pretty pictures, so...
Spring Grove Cemetery has a pretty active calendar.
But maybe these ideas could be used by the city with Wesleyan Cemetery.
We have hyper programming in several parks, The Banks & Fountain Square. Why not Wesleyan? It's a large park like area with a good sized area with no interments. I don't know about electricity and the roads are narrow and there's no parking lot per se but most of these issues aren't unsolvable.
Maybe 3CDC would be interested. It's not like they don't have precedent with digging up stiffs & burying parking garages...
The Central Parkway 'Protected' bike lanes are making the news. I guess Rob Braun is the 'Reasonable Man'.
I have never supported this plan that's referred to as a 'Disaster' 3 times in about as mny minutes in this WKRC hitpiece but again the useless excuse for a mayor promotes his recreational bike trails over usable public roadways.
As far as motorists careening into parked cars - ya need to pay attention while operating a fast rolling 1 ton death cage. If you don't want to pay attention - walk.
kudos to the union boss for being relatively civil for once.
